Yayın Analysis of layered media terminated with an impedance surface varying in lateral directions(Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2000) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliDetermination of the constitutive parameters of a region from data provided by remote sensing is an extremely interesting and important topic from various points of view. In a large class of problems of this type, the region to be explored is not bounded but layered. When a layered region is electromagnetically penetrable from both sides, it can be explored through some already known methods dwelling on the analytical expressions of the reflection and refraction coefficients. But the situation is quite converse if both sides of the layered media is not accessible. This work is devoted to the case where the layered media to be explored is limited from one side by an impedance plane whose impedance varies in one direction while the other side is not accessible. It is assumed that the impedance of the plane boundary consists of n parts having constant Impedances. The atmosphere above the earth surface constitutes a typical example of such a configuration.Yayın Diffraction of two-dimensional high-frequency electromagnetic waves by a locally perturbed two-part impedance plane(Elsevier Science BV, 2005-06) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliDuring the second half of the last century mixed boundary-value problems had been an appealing research subject for both mathematicians and engineers. Among this kind of problems those connected with wave propagation in half-spaces or slabs bounded by sectionally homogeneous boundaries took an important place because they were motivated by microwave applications. The simplest problem of this kind is the classical two-part problem which can be reduced to a functional equation involving two unknown functions, say psi(+)(v) and psi(-)(v), which are regular in the upper and lower halves of the complex v-plane, respectively. This functional equation can be rigorously treated by the Wiener-Hopf technique. When the boundary consists of three (or more) parts, the resulting functional equation involves also an entire function, say P(v), in addition to psi(+)(v) and psi(-)(v), which makes the problem not solvable exactly. A local (non-homogeneous) perturbation on a two-part boundary, which is of extreme importance from engineering point of view, gives also rise to a problem of this type. The known methods established to overcome the difficulties inherent to the three-part problems are based on the elimination of the entire function P(v) first to obtain a linear system of two singular integral equations for psi(+) and psi(-). After having determined the functions psi(+)(v) and psi(-)(v) by solving this system of integral equations numerically, the function P(v) is found from the functional equation in question. Numerical solutions to the aforementioned system, which need rather hard computations, cannot provide results which are suitable to physical interpretations. The aim of the present paper is to establish a new method which is based, conversely, on the elimination of the unknown functions psi(+)(v) and psi(-)(v) first to obtain a linear integral equation of the first kind for the entire function P(v), which can be solved rather easily by regularized numerical methods. Then the functions psi(+)(v) and psi(-)(v) are determined through the classical Wiener-Hopf technique. The result to be obtained by this approach seems to be more suitable to physical interpretations and permits one to reveal the effect of the perturbation on the scattered wave. Some illustrative examples show the applicability and effectiveness of the method.Yayın Diffraction of two-dimensional high-frequency electromagnetic waves by a locally perturbed two-part impedance plane(2004) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliAmong the wave propagation problems, those connected with half-spaces bounded by sectionally homogeneous boundaries take important place because they are motivated by microwave applications. If the boundary are of three or more parts, then the problem results, very frequently, in functional equations involving unknown functions, say Ψ+ (v), Ψ- (v) and P(v), which are regular in the upper half, lower half and whole of the complex v-plane, respectively, except at the point of infinity. A local (non-homogeneous) perturbation on a two-part boundary, which is of extreme importance from engineering point of view, gives also rise to a problem of this type. The aim of the present paper is to establish a method which is based on the elimination of the unknown functions Ψ+ (v) and Ψ- (v) to obtain an integral equation of the Fredholm type for the entire function P(v), which can be solved rather easily by numerical methods. The functions Ψ+ (v) and Ψ- (v) are then determined by the classical Wiener-Hopf technique.Yayın A generalization of the Wiener-Hopf approach to direct and inverse scattering problems connected with non-homogeneous half-spaces bounded by n-part boundaries(Oxford Univ Press, 2000-08) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliThe classical Wiener-Hopf method connected with mixed two-part boundary-value problems is generalized to cover n-part boundaries. To this end one starts from an ad-hoc representation for the Green function, which involves n unknown functions having certain analytical properties. Thus the problem is reduced to a functional equation involving n unknowns, which constitutes a generalization of the classical Wiener-Hopf equation in two unknowns. To solve this latter which cannot be solved exactly when n greater than or equal to 3, one establishes a new method permitting one to obtain the asymptotic expressions valid when the wavelength is sufficiently small as compared with the widths of the inner strips of the boundary. The essentials of the method are elucidated through a concrete inverse scattering problem whose aim is to determine the constitutive electromagnetic parameters of a slab and a half-space bounded by an n-part impedance plane. Some illustrative numerical examples show the applicability as well as the accuracy of the method.Yayın Influence of the velocity on the energy patterns of moving scatterers(Taylor & Francis, 2004) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliParallel to the developments in the communication through space vehicles achieved during the last two decades, the scattering problems connected with moving objects became more and more important from both theoretical and practical points of view. Same problems are also arisen in point of space science, radio astronomy, radar techniques and particle physics. The earlier investigations available in the open literature concern the analysis of the scattered field pattern and, hence, treat the polarization, frequency shift (Doppler effect), aberration, etc, which are all important from both pure scientific and technological points of view. But, another issue which is also important in regard to the communication, antennas and particle physics is the influence of the motion on the scattered energy patterns which involves the radar cross-section and scattering coefficient. This paper is devoted to this purpose and aims to study the influence of the velocity on the received and scattered energies. Notice that the scattered wave is not time-harmonic even though the incident wave is so because the Lorentz transformation formulas interrelate the space coordinates and time, which makes impossible to extend the notion of radar cross-section to moving bodies. For the sake of simplicity of the mathematical manipulations, only two-dimensional case is taken into account but the method can be adapted by straightforward extensions to other types of scatterer.Yayın A new method for the source localization in sectionally homogeneous bounded domains involving finitely many inner interfaces of arbitrary shapes(Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2001-05) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliA new method to localize a static point source buried in a nonhomogeneous bounded domain composed of finitely many homogeneous parts separated by interfaces of arbitrary shapes was established. The source can be a simple point charge or current or a dipole of them. The method requires only the knowledge of the potential function Phi (x, y, z) at five or six points on the outermost interface depending on whether the source is simple or dipole. The new and basic feature of the method consists of determining the potential function Phi (0)(x, y, z) which would be observed if the whole space was filled with a homogeneous material. Then, in the case of a simple source, the position P-0 as well as the strengths can be determined, in general, by solving a system of three linear algebraic equations. When the source consists of a dipole, its position P-0 and moment (p) over right arrow can be found by solving a system of six nonlinear algebraic equations. The determination of Phi (0) P-0 and s (or (p) over right arrow) is achieved iteratively by solving the above-mentioned algebraic equations along with a singular integral equation satisfied by Phi (0) Some illustrative examples show the applicability and accuracy of the method. The method can have effective applications in heat conduction, matter diffusion, electrostatics, steady-state current flow, electroencephalography, electrocardiography, etc.Yayın On a class of functional equations of the Wiener-Hopf type and their applications in n-part scattering problems(Oxford Univ Press, 2003-12) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, AliAn asymptotic theory for the functional equation K-phi=f, where K : X-->Y stands for a matrix-valued linear operator of the form K=K1P1+K2P2+...+KnPn, is developed. Here X and Y refer to certain Hilbert spaces, {P-alpha} denotes a partition of the unit operator in X while K-alpha are certain operators from X to Y. One assumes that the partition {P-alpha} as well as the operators K-alpha depend on a complex parameter nu such that all K-alpha are multi-valued around certain branch points at nu=k(+) and nu=k(-) while the inverse operators K-alpha(-1) exist and are bounded in the appropriately cut nu-plane except for certain poles. Then, for a class of {P-alpha} having certain analytical properties, an asymptotic solution valid for \k(+/-)\-->infinity is given. The basic idea is the decomposition of phi into a sum of projections on n mutually orthogonal subspaces of X. The results can be extended in a straightforward manner to the cases of no or more branch points. If there is no branch point or n=2, then the results are all exact. The theory may have effective applications in solving some direct and inverse multi-part boundary-value problems connected with high-frequency waves. An illustrative example shows the applicability as well as the effectiveness of the method.
